Wal-mart Price drop on a few titles.

I do not know if this is worth posting, please lock if a waste of time.

I was a Walmart this weekend and saw Genji:Dawn of the Samurai for $16.97, Final Fantasy IV advance for $23. Overall some good prices for recent titles. This was at my local walmart, but I thought I would let everyone know just in case these are company-wide mark downs.

All Wal-Mart prices are, YMMV. Those prices are most likely pennies below a local retail stores prices and temporary. Wal-Mart does this, they have "teams" that search for prices slightly lower than theres and then they lower theres by a few cents. My parents owned a retail store in a mall and have personally seen this. Also they adjust their prices to be a few cents lower than major competitor ads but only in major market areas.

A Dallas store may have a game that Target has on sale for $37.88 and Wal-Mart will charge $36.94 or something similar. Usually these are marked by cheap bright colored paper with a sharpie that way as soon as the competition's ad expires they go back to full retail. Those of us who live in rural areas where store such as Target do not exist, do not get these price "adjustments" we get full retail minus a few cents ($49.76). Notice a trend? Also the grocery department in areas with no grocery competition are noticably more expensive. Hence, with no competition Wal-Mart will charge whatever the fuck they like. I guess there is some basis to those "conspiracy theries"

Genji I can attest to being $20 new at Best Buy, but I was in a bunch of Gamestops over the B2G1 sale and they all had used Genjis for $35. Haven't played it yet, but it's probably still a pretty good deal.

And FFIV Advance is worth any price. Obviously.
